      Nono, that’s a feature. They still make money off those ads while you’re paying not to see them.

    I feel completely opposite. I love chromecast and was so disappointed to find that they shifted to the Google TV crap and added a remote like the Fire stick, Roku, etc. IMO those remotes and the accompanying interfaces are what get in the way. Having one remote (ie my phone) feels great to me. I have a number of casting sources around the house and it’s great.

    That said, AppleTV as mentioned elsewhere is a really nice responsive interface.

      I love my Apple TV and have had no desire to use a different streaming box for as long as I’ve had one. It works best when you’re neck deep in the Apple ecosystem, of course, but even if you’re not it’s still very capable and easy to use.

      Yeah me either and when I do it seems it’s more the app that’s casting that’s having an issue
